Oh boy.. someone was listening to Rusty yesterday,
and it WAS NOT a chicken!

I found a duck egg in the duck pen this morning.
yeah! Our first duck egg!

I just went out to the chicken coop.. and ah-ha.. they will NOT be outdone by ducks!

lol! Here is Star in a nest box,
with Rusty.. ummmm.. "egging" her on!
I have nicknamed him "Coach Rusty".

I took three pictures.. she is just so cute!!!

lol.. think she is straining?

That is funny! You would think they would be outside enjoying the weather!

Ha ha...look at Coach Rusty.

How fatherly of him.

I remember with my second child at one point I told my mom to go ahead and take my first child home for a nap and to come back later.

My husband comes back from getting himself some coffee notices my mom and our dd are gone and asks in a whiney voice, "What am I supposed to do?"

I told him- the same thing you'd do if we were at home...watch tv and sit with me...i just gave birth!

I tell ya...

me,

Star has laid 4 eggs... one a day, and they are beautiful eggs!
Yesterday, they were ALL in the coop.. cheering her on again.
I went in the house and shortly after heard an awful ruckus
outside in the coop and run. The ducks too! I thought that
maybe something tried to get them. When I went out,
Rusty and Star were in the coop bagawking. I think that
they were all cheering that Star had just laid her egg
because there it was, underneath her in the nest box.

silly birds!

Here are her eggs.....

 

[FisherMOM]

well, I went out to collect egg, and her sister Crystal is laying now as well!!! So I got 2 eggs. You can see Rusty's feathers in the nest, so I am sure he was doing some more coaching today!

Congrats on those beautiful eggs!

Now if my girls would just start laying, I would really be eggcited.
